Great Place to Stay for Yosemite Visit

We had a great time staying here for our 5-day trip to visit Yosemite. This 2BR apartment was perfect for our group of 4 adults, A great retreat to return to after long days of hiking in the park. The location was good as there were several good restaurants in Mariposa and we were about 45 minutes away from Yosemite Valley. We had a great time and will definitely stay here again the next time we come to the area. Irene was a great host.

Easy to find, quick access to town and highways, all amenities you'll need. Might want to bring your own pillow. The ones at the house are a little too big (for me). Wildlife in the property in back is fun to watch!

Butterfly Apartment

Very clean, very reasonably priced, 1 hour to Yosemite, Irene was quick to respond to questions. She was there with in 20 minutes to replace the propane tank for the BBQ. I would stay there again if visiting Yosemite. The Hidden Grill in town was a fun place to eat and have a drink.

We absolutely loved this property, it was perfect! Very well equipped, set in a beautiful location. We watched the birds, jack rabbits, turkeys, deer. Very safe and only a short drive from Mariposa which was a great little town. We also visited Yosemite which is about a 45 min drive away. An absolute must! Thank you Irene.

Nice apartment in Mariposa

We chose to stay in Mariposa during our visit to Yosemite. This apartment was located close to the highway to the park and to restaurants and grocery stores in town. The kitchen was well-equipped, having everything we needed to make our own meals. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and would recommend it for anyone who doesn't mind being a little further away from the park.

Close to enough Yosemite for the price

Apartment was a lot bigger than we needed just being my husband and I, but well worth the money. 2 bedrooms, 1 queen bed and 2 twin with a reclining couch and chair this could easily sleep 6-7 ppl comfortably. The wildlife (deer) in the area were fun to watch. Everything we needed was already there.

Mariposa, Very Nice

The upstairs unit was super comfortable and clean. We used the apartment as our home base while we explored Yosemite. The drive was reasonable and picturesque. We also enjoyed downtown Mariposa. As a retired miner, my father-in-law really enjoyed the historical museum and the gold rush connection. Irene was responsive to my texts and I felt good about our choice of accomodation! We would choose to stay there again.

The property was primarily clean. It would benefit from hangers for our clothing, as there were none. Further, an ironing board and iron, as there were none. The property below was occupied and we could hear everything as they were so loud and the TV was on super load. The apartment had an odor that smelled like someone had been smoking and it was covered up with carpet fresh. The overall experince was good for the four days.

Perfektes Apartment

Das Apartment ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und extrem gut ausgestattet (vor allem die Küche). Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und unser Sohn hatte viel Platz zum Spielen auf dem gemütlichen Teppich. Von Mariposa ist es zwar ein kleines Stück bis zum Yosemite Nationalpark, dafür gibt es aber einen großen Supermarkt und ein paar gute Restaurants.

Great Value for visiting Yosemite NP

Convenient location. This rental worked well for getting to famous Natural destinations. The town has a good grocery store and several gift shops. Wawona Hotel Restaurant, not far into the National Park, gets our thumbs up for its warm, attractive, and historical setting. Irene has taken care to provide comforts of home and a relaxing mattress for our weary bones!
